Taumbayan Project

Converse. Convert. Converge.
Launched in 2019 to promote youth registration in the 2022 National Elections, the Taumbayan Project provided a platform for young people to share their experiences and aspirations for the country.
For three years, we held various activities such as voters’ education sessions to educate and encourage Filipinos to elect ethnical leaders. Since our young people are at different stages of their civic engagement, the project was divided into three components:      
  • "Taumbahay" (home buddy)
  • A digital campaign that highlights the everyday experience of young people during the pandemic and months towards the upcoming elections.
  • "Tambayan" (a place to hang out)
  • Online and offline workshops that link personal experiences with broader civics and governance issues.
  • "Taumbayanan" (people's solidarity)
  • A youth community working towards building a more critical and discerning nation.
Through this initiative, we hope to promote the importance of democraticprocesses and institutions among our youth. By relating current governance issues to the personal experiences of our youth, we hope to open more spaces to listen, support, and engage them. Through Taumbayan, we hope to contribute in building an engaged and active citizenry.
